$ rpmbuild --rebuild sane-backends-1.0.27-5.fc27.src.rpm
Installing sane-backends-1.0.27-5.fc27.src.rpm
error: sane-backends-1.0.27-5.fc27.src.rpm cannot be installed

Fedora 27 has so far out paced RHEL it is not funny.  I haven't
been able to rebuild Fedora rpms for over a year.  RHEL
is minimally maintained to support stability.  It is basically
a really old, frozen version of Fedora, with amendments.
